They looked down at Lan Xihe from the top of the 72-story white tower. It was as though they were looking at a fragile bird. She landed alone on the snowy ground, trembling.
The white-clad cultivators found it hard to accept that their lofty and invincible Pagoda Master Lan had been defeated just like that.
They were all in a daze.
Lan Xihe hated the ground and the sunlight.
She hated defeat even more.
In her entire life, she had never suffered such a crushing defeat like today.
Three moves … She barely managed to tie with one move.
Lan Xihe knew she would lose. She had seen with her own eyes how Lu Zhou had defeated the Black Tower in the form of a blue lotus. Hence, she wanted to use this opportunity to verify a theory in her mind. Alas, she did not expect to lose so thoroughly.
She could not accept this.
Her hair fell on the snowy ground.
It seemed pure and clean.
She felt terrible.
She forced herself to stand up straight. She suppressed the restlessness in her heart and controlled her surging Qi and blood.
With the ground as her foundation …
Lan Xihe steadied herself.
She looked up slowly at Lu Zhou who was hovering in the air.
The white-clad cultivators on the white tower descended one after another.
The members of the White Tower on the lower floors immediately rushed out.
Many of the members of the White Tower who had entered the White Tower had never seen Lan Xihe's face before. They all ran out to see what their Pagoda Master looked like.
She had peerless features, clear eyes, and fair skin.
She resembled a lotus flower that bloomed on the surface of a calm lake.
They did not have time to see Lan Xihe's face.
Lan Xihe waved her hand.
The wind picked up the snowflakes and sent them dancing in the air.
The red blood vanished along with the snowflakes. The sun, moon, and stars shone brightly again, drawing everyone's attention.
The light faded away.
When they tried to take a closer look, Lan Xihe's figure was nowhere to be seen.
It was empty.
However, in the place where the blood had disappeared, a delicate and beautiful flower had grown.
It welcomed the sunlight and bloomed.
…
In the air above the 72nd floor.
Lan Xihe's eyes were as clear as water. She had reverted to her usual self.
Compared to before, she no longer had the haughty air about her. On the contrary, he had a more humble attitude.
"I've lost," Lan Xihe said to Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou said indifferently, "You're hurt."
…
Yu Zhenghai looked at Si Wuya and asked in a hushed tone, "What's master's strength?"
After all, ever since he returned to the Evil Sky Pavilion, he could not figure out his master at all.
Si Wuya said, "Before this, I thought master has some secret technique that can greatly improve his cultivation base … However, it seems like master has indeed been to the Great Void …"
"Have you been to the Great Void?"
"Only those who have been to the Great Void would have such a great opportunity. Moreover … I have a theory that you won't believe, Eldest Senior Brother, "Si Wuya said.
"Brother, feel free to speak. How can I not trust you? "Yu Zhenghai patted his shoulder.
Si Wuya raised the barrier and projected his voice.
"Three hundred years ago, Master went to an unknown place, and Luo Xuan happened to take one of the pills. Coincidentally, Little Junior Sister Conch had inherited Luo Xuan's power. Coincidentally, Conch had the Great Void's … aura. Coincidentally, there were ten seeds of the Great Void that were rumored to exist three hundred years ago. Coincidentally, the ten of us have … the aura of the Great Void on us. "
Yu Zhenghai. "…"
"Eldest Senior Brother, do you think there are so many coincidences happening to us at the same time?"
Yu Zhenghai was stunned.
Si Wuya's expression remained the same. It was as though he was narrating something that had happened objectively.
Yu Zhenghai asked, "Why aren't you surprised?"
"Shouldn't you be the one who's surprised, Eldest Senior Brother? I've guessed this a long time ago … "Si Wuya said casually.
"…"
Yu Zhenghai wanted to say something, but he hesitated. He wanted to say something, but he felt that this was the White Tower's territory. In the end, he could only keep his mouth shut.
He quickly regained his composure and stopped discussing the matter.
Si Wuya said, "This … is also the reason why Eldest Senior Brother was able to come back to life despite the 1,000-year limit despite dying thrice, Eldest Senior Brother. The Great Void seeds are blessed by the heavens and earth. The changes in our bodies might've allowed us to break through the 1,000-year limit a long time ago. In other words … Eldest Senior Brother, you're the chosen one. "
"Why do I feel like you're praising yourself as well?"
"The bright moon shines above the sea, and the world shares this moment … I'm praising everyone," Si Wuya said nonchalantly.
"…"
Yu Zhenghai coughed and said, "Back to the topic at hand. Master injured Lan Xihe. Do you think master will heal her?"
"I don't know." Si Wuya shook his head.
"There's something you don't know as well?" Yu Zhenghai said, "Lan Xihe is too arrogant. This is similar to you and Second Junior Brother. With master's temper, it's good enough that he didn't beat her up. She wants to heal her? "
"Eldest Senior Brother is right."
…
It was just as Yu Zhenghai had expected.
Lu Zhou looked at the injured Lan Xihe. He did not feel any sympathy for her.
If it were not for the Thunderblast and the rank one defense, Lan Xihe would not have been able to withstand Lan Xihe's destructive attack even if she had ten lives.
"Pavilion Master Lu, your methods are admirable," Lan Xihe said.
Lu Zhou said,
"You're lucky. Few of those who were struck by my palm strike could remain standing. Some of them even died. It's rare for you to be able to circulate your Primal Qi. "
Lan Xihe said,
"Are you that confident, Pavilion Master Lu?"
"You don't understand me." Lu Zhou shook his head.
Lan Xihe wanted to say, 'You don't understand me either.' However, it seemed like a loser was looking for an excuse.
She merely sighed and said, "If there's nothing wrong with my cultivation, perhaps … you're not a match for me, Pavilion Master Lu."
Lu Zhou's curiosity was piqued.
"What's wrong with your cultivation? Perhaps, I can give you some guidance."
Lan Xihe looked at Lu Zhou and asked,
"Pavilion Master Lu … What's your cultivation base?"
"Only stronger, not weaker," Lu Zhou replied.
'At this point, I'll be right no matter what I say.'
Lan Xihe said, "Every six Birth Charts, you'll pass the Life Test. After passing the test of the Land of Extremes, you'll obtain the power of the Life Test. Everyone thinks that after passing the Twelve Birth Charts, the Thirteen Birth Charts are the next … In truth, that's not the case."
Something stirred in Lu Zhou, but he did not interrupt.
Lan Xihe flew toward the white tower and returned to the palace on the 72nd floor.
Lu Zhou and the others returned to their seats.
Lan Xihe sat on the high chair as though he was never injured.
"In truth … the next stage after the Twelve Birth Charts is the Eleven-leaf stage," Lan Xihe said.
"Eleven-leaf?"
This reminded Lu Zhou of Yu Shangrong.
Yu Shangrong did not activate his Birth Chart. Instead, he was at the Eleven-leaf stage.
Lan Xihe said,
"Without the eleventh leaf lotus seat and Life Palace to sustain life, the activation of the thirteenth Birth Chart will shorten one's lifespan. I've been to many places and searched for ancient books … "
Si Wuya said.
"This deduction should be correct. The size of a Fate Palace is related to the lotus seat. Every time a lotus leaf sprouts, the lotus seat will naturally expand by one space, and the lifespan will also increase."
Lan Xihe nodded. He looked at Si Wuya and said, "That's why … Many people have limited Birth Charts and can't activate them because their Life Palaces are too small."
Lu Zhou said.
"The path of cultivation has always been complicated and ever-changing. You can sprout the Eleven-leaf stage now and make up for it. "
"Too late …"
Lan Xihe sighed. "Once the thirteen Life Providences are opened, there's no way to reverse it. Besides, I don't have much time left."
Lu Zhou seized the opportunity to ask,
"Have you ever seen a Ten-leaf cultivator enter the Eleven-leaf stage?"
